roachboy, you're missing the point. of course society was different if you go back more than 200 or 300 years - but there were still taxes. That's my point. Whether taxes can be used for other purposes, too, is a different issue. Of course they can. You can use a book for purposes other than reading, too, such as to hold up a table leg, but that doesn't mean the purpose of a book is to hold up a table leg.
Robin Hood redistributed wealth, too. He did it honestly - he used a gun, openly. Well, not a gun, but its medieval equivalent.
